"That's right. How could I possibly trust a strange man? It must be a misconception."
Huangfu Mingzhu cursed in her heart, but she quickly calmed herself down.
However, what she didn't notice was that when Heavenly God Lu Lan spoke, Wutian's expression changed slightly. There was an additional trace of imperceptible coldness!
The reason why he did this was because he was afraid that Heavenly God Lu Lan would notice something.
Just as he wished, Heavenly God Lu Lan, Cheng Yu, and Su Ying didn't notice. The only person who did was Ni Yeye. Due to some special ability, he caught every change in Wutian's expression.
As such, he was becoming more and more interested in Wutian …
Heavenly God Lu Lan glanced at his daughter with a suspicious expression. Seeing that she had returned to normal, he didn't pay too much attention to her. He then looked at Wutian and said, "As long as you give me the Dark Essence, I promise to give you everything, whether it's status, wealth, or other treasures."
Wutian shook his head. "Don't waste your time. I won't give it to you."
"You'd better know what's good for you."
Heavenly God Lu Lan frowned with a hint of displeasure.
Wutian ignored him and said indifferently, "Senior Lu Lan, I have a question. I'm a Heavenly Soldier Emissary, so can I be considered a member of the Celestial Court?"
Heavenly God Lu Lan said, "Of course."
Wutian asked, "Since I'm considered a member of the Celestial Court, then why are you forcing me to do something I don't want to do for your own selfish reasons? Senior Lu Lan is the head of the Celestial Court in the Northern Region. Is this considered abusing your power and bullying others? "
Heavenly God Lu Lan said, "What a sharp tongue. However, you've heard it clearly. I'm willing to compensate you as long as you ask."
Wutian said indifferently, "I'm sorry, but there's nothing on you that I'm interested in."
Hearing this, Cheng Yu raised his eyebrows and said sternly, "Li Buluan, Master has given you enough face by persuading you with kind words. Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"
"Lu Lan, this is your fault. You shouldn't make things difficult for a junior for the sake of your daughter. Furthermore, this junior is a member of the Celestial Court."
Suddenly, a reproachful voice sounded.
Immediately afterward, an imposing figure broke through Heavenly God Lu Lan's divine power seal and appeared within the palace.
This man was none other than the Lord Tianbaoge!
Lu Lan frowned and said, "Yang Zongyu, what are you doing here?"
Yang Zongyu said lightly, "I'm here to persuade you. If I can't, I can only take Li Buluan away."
"Take him away?"
Lu Lan was incomparably surprised and couldn't help but look at Wutian, thinking in his heart, could it be that this kid has some sort of relationship with Yang Zongyu?
Cheng Yu was also puzzled. He glanced at Wutian and cupped his hands to Yang Zongyu, "Senior, this is an internal matter of our Celestial Court. Please don't interfere."
"Haha, you may not know, but Li Buluan is now a 10-star VIP of Tianbaoge Hall. If he speaks, I can immediately take him away. And this matter is your fault first, so I'm not worried that this will destroy the relationship between the Celestial Court and Tianbaoge Hall."
Yang Zongyu smiled faintly.
"There's such a thing?"
Wutian was overjoyed.
When someone was happy, there would naturally be someone who was worried.
Lu Lan and Cheng Yu's faces sank, and their eyes flickered.
"Haha, Li Buluan, since the Celestial Court can't tolerate you, why don't you come to my Rogue Cultivator Alliance? I promise that I won't snatch your Dark Essence and will give you the highest treatment."
At this moment, another loud laughter rang out, and a black-robed man appeared in the hall. His face was full of vicissitudes, his eyes were deep, and his arrogant posture was quite similar to Qin Hong and Qin Fan.
Obviously, this person was the Devil God of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, Qin Ming!
Qin Ming's appearance caused the already dense atmosphere here to rise to another level!
Su Ying, Huangfu Mingzhu, and Ni Yeye couldn't help but feel suffocated!
Qin Ming glanced at the audience, and his eyes finally fell on Wutian. He smiled and said, "Li Buluan, what do you think of my suggestion?"
"Thank you for your kindness, senior."
Wutian smiled and cupped his hands. He neither agreed nor disagreed.
In fact, he was telling Lu Lan not to force him. If he was forced into a corner, he would betray the Celestial Court and join the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
Sure enough, hearing his answer, Lu Lan frowned and fell into a dilemma.
She really didn't expect that at the critical moment, not only would Yang Zongyu step forward to protect this kid, but even Qin Ming would come to join in the fun and throw out an olive branch.
If it was an ordinary person, she wouldn't care.
If it was just an ordinary genius, she could ignore it.
However, this kid had opened the legendary Heavenly Meridian and had unlimited potential. If he was really forced out of the Celestial Court, it would undoubtedly be a great loss for the Celestial Court.
Most importantly, if this kid left the Celestial Court, his younger brother would also leave. In this way, they would lose two great geniuses.
Moreover, once this happened, it would definitely spread to the ears of the Tengoku giants. At that time, even as the ruler of the Northern Region, she would not be able to escape the blame!
Huangfu Mingzhu looked at her mother's expression. She knew very well that if the situation continued to develop, it would definitely be difficult to end it in the end. She sighed deeply and said, "Mother, you don't have to be troubled. I don't want the Dark Essence anymore."
"Mingzhu, you …"
Heavenly Goddess Lu Lan frowned, but before she could finish speaking, Huangfu Mingzhu sighed and said, "Mother, everything in this world has its own destiny. If it's mine, it can't run away. If it's not mine, it can't be forced."
After saying this, she looked toward Wutian with an apologetic expression and bowed. "Mr. Li, I'm sorry. Please forgive me for everything I've done to you."
"Phew!"
Only now did Wutian finally relax. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief and shook his head. "You don't have to apologize. If it were me, I would have done the same thing. In fact, I would have done it even more crazily than you."
"Thank you for your magnanimity, Mr. Li."
Huangfu Mingzhu bowed slightly before turning to leave without saying anything else.
Wutian looked deeply at her dejected figure and felt an indescribable pain in his heart. He couldn't help but say, "Miss Mingzhu, please believe in me. I will definitely help you awaken your Immortal Body in the future!"
"Thank you, Mr. Li."
Huangfu Mingzhu looked back and smiled, but it was a forced smile. Then, she quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Haha, I really didn't misjudge Mingzhu."
Yang Zongyu smiled slightly and looked at Lu Lan, whose expression was uncertain. He shook his head and said, "You should be glad that you have such a sensible and sensible daughter. Only then will the situation not develop to an irreversible situation."
Lu Lan frowned and said, "Should I thank you for your praise?"
"If you really want to thank me, I will accept it calmly."
Yang Zongyu shrugged and turned his gaze to Wutian. He smiled and said, "Little fellow, work hard. I hope that I can still see you after a thousand years."
"I believe that Senior will definitely see it."
Wutian smiled, his face brimming with confidence.
"It's good to have confidence, but the Divine Realm is not a good place. You're on your own."
Yang Zongyu warned, and then he looked at Qin Ming who had a gloomy expression and said indifferently, "Brother Qin, I just happen to have a debt to settle with you. Why don't you come with me to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion?"
Qin Ming seemed not to hear it, and his eyes wandered between Wutian and Lu Lan.
"I didn't expect Huangfu Mingzhu to give up like this, but it doesn't matter. After what happened today, there will definitely be estrangement between Li Buluan and Lu Lan. After Li Buluan goes to the Divine Realm, I'll ask someone to have a good talk with him. If he doesn't know what's good for him, the Divine Realm will be his burial place!"
A cold light flashed in Qin Ming's eyes. He knew that it was meaningless to continue to stay. His figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
"You run really fast. But if you don't take responsibility for your brother's mistakes, who will?"
Yang Zongyu shook his head and laughed. He nodded to Wutian, and then took a step forward and quickly chased after him.
"I have to find a way to escape, or I will definitely be forced back to Tengoku by my aunt!"
Seeing this, Ni Yeye was also ready to escape.
However, Lu Lan did not give him a chance at all. Her pressure rolled out and directly imprisoned him in place.
"Little b * stard, you better behave yourself. Otherwise, I don't mind teaching you a lesson on behalf of your father."
Lu Lan glanced at him indifferently and waved her hand to Su Ying and Cheng Yu. She instructed, "You two withdraw first."
"Yes, Master."
Su Ying and Cheng Yu bowed and retreated.
In this way, only Wutian, Lu Lan, and Ni Yeye were left at the scene.
Lu Lan got up from her seat and walked slowly to Wutian. She bowed and said, "Wutian, I apologize for today's matter."
Wutian's pupils constricted, and he hurriedly reached out to stop her, "Senior, please don't. How can I dare to accept your bow?"
"Hypocrite!"
Ni Yeye couldn't help but disdain.
"Shut up!"
Lv Lan shouted without even turning his head. Ni Yeye shrunk his neck and immediately became obedient.
Seeing this scene, Wutian's heart trembled. It seemed that Ni Yeye's true identity was even more terrifying than he had imagined.
At this moment, Lu Lan said, "Li Buluan, I heard you say that you can help Mingzhu awaken her immortal body. Is that true?"
Wutian nodded.
Seeing this, Lu Lan's face immediately revealed a hint of joy. She asked, "How long will it take?"
"This junior can't be sure." Wutian shook his head. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If I can find the Light Essence in a short time, it might not take much time."
Wutian's plan was to find the Light Essence first. After he awakened his immortal body, the seven elemental essences would automatically leave. He would take advantage of the time when the seven elemental essences left to forcefully stop them. However, he wasn't completely confident.
After all, the seven elemental essences were treasures of heaven and earth. Everything was unknown.
"Light Essence …"
Lu Lan pondered for a moment and asked, "If you have the Light Essence, how are you going to help Mingzhu awaken her immortal body?"
"Why? Is the Light Essence in your hands? "
Wutian asked calmly.
Lu Lan shook her head and said, "I don't, but I know where the Light Essence is."
Wutian asked, "Where is it?"
Lu Lan looked at him warily and said, "Tell me first, how are you going to help Mingzhu awaken her immortal body?"
Wutian shook his head and said, "I can't tell you. If you trust me, tell me. If you don't, just pretend that I didn't ask."
